Explanation to above table


Site Site numbering as used in this survey. My numbering only uses figures separated by points.

Scherz Labelling used by Scherz (1975), which always includes a capital letter to denote the location of a rock-art group. The capital letter is followed by a figure that indicates the number of the rock in each group. Sometimes I have added a small case letter to Scherz' notation to distinguish separate blocks of stone with decoration that did not get their own numbering. The indication S02 in this column means that some data about the panel or rock in question have also been derived from the site-report by Sven Ouzman (2002), included in this survey as Appendix 2.

Orient. Orientation. H = horizontal; V = vertical; S = sloping; N = nearly. ? = Unknown/not stated.

Direct. Direction in which the carved surface faces.  N = facing north; E = facing east; S = facing south; W = facing west.

Type & Size R : randomly distributed across the panel. 1: point 01 mm
A : arranged in patterns, for instance rows. 2: dot  05 mm
Z  : associated with zoomorphic engravings. 3: small cupule 30 mm
G : associated with geometric engravings. 4: standard cup 50 mm
C : superimposed upon iconic designs. 5: large cupule 50 mm
C : superimposed upon iconic designs. 6: basin 10 cm

Y/N yes or no primordial cupule rock (the grey areas denote sites/numbers excluded from cupule statistics).

nTC Number of true cupules.

nPC Number of possible cupules.

noC (no cupules): Number of anthropic depressions that are not considered to be (possible) cupules in this survey.




Number of decorated rocks at Twyfelfontein

See figure 60 and figure 61 (below) for the location of the Rock Art groups
C = Cupule rocks (the number of cupule rocks is included in the number of the non-iconic, iconic and mixed numbers: e.g. Group 1 has 20 decorated rocks, 4 of which have Cupules).
